Product details
Overview
FAN53730UC02X from onsemi is an I²C-controlled 3 A synchronous buck regulator with Constant On-Time (COT) topology, supporting 2.3 V–5.5 V input and programmable 0.3 V–2.0 V output. It delivers fast transient response, 2.5 MHz CCM switching, forced CCM mode, audio reduction, and power-good signaling-designed for LPDDR memory power rails in mobile SoCs.
For engineers reviewing the FAN53730UC02X datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include I²C programmability of VSET1/VSET2 (1.00 V / 1.05 V), 12.8 µA quiescent current in DCM, thermal/UVLO/fault protection, and WLCSP12 package compatibility with high-density mobile PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The FAN53730UC02X implements a variable-frequency COT control architecture that dynamically adjusts switching frequency based on load to optimize efficiency-operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at light loads and transitioning to ~2.5 MHz continuous conduction mode (CCM) above ~1 A. Its valley-current-limited power stage supports up to 3 A output with programmable 4.6 A / 2.3 A current limit thresholds via I²C register VAL_ILIM.
I²C interface (Fast Mode Plus, 1 MHz max) enables full configuration: dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) with 8 slew rates, audio reduction mode (ARM) with 25 µs / 40 µs timeout, PG polarity inversion, and output discharge disable-all without requiring external logic. The device integrates internal high-side (33 mΩ) and low-side (23 mΩ) MOSFETs and operates across −40°C to +85°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.3 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, USB PD, and PMIC intermediate bus rails without external LDO pre-regulation. |
| Output Voltage Range | 0.3 V to 2.0 V - programmable in 10 mV steps via I²C; default VSET1/VSET2 = 1.00 V / 1.05 V for LPDDR4/LPDDR5 core voltage sequencing. |
| Max Output Current | 3 A - verified under 2.5 V–5.5 V input and 0.3 V–1.0 V output per derating curve (Fig. 33), limited by thermal and valley-current constraints. |
| Quiescent Current | 12.8 µA (DCM, no load) - enables >100-hour battery standby in always-on mobile subsystems with minimal leakage impact. |
| Switching Frequency | ~2.5 MHz in FCCM - reduces external component size (0.24 µH inductor, 2×22 µF 0402 output caps) and avoids AM radio band interference. |
| I²C Interface | Fast Mode Plus (1 MHz), 7-bit address 0x20 (0x22 for UC02X) - allows multi-device addressing and register-level control of DVS, ARM, PG_POL, and fault behavior. |
| Protection Features | UVLO (2.3 V rising), thermal shutdown (150°C), short-circuit timeout (40 µs), overcurrent (valley-limited), and PG monitoring - eliminates need for discrete fault management circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 12-bump WLCSP (1.07 mm × 1.36 mm, 0.35 mm pitch, Case 567GK), bottom-side solder bumps, designed for ultra-compact mobile PCBs with minimal board area and thermal resistance (θJA = 130°C/W on 2s2p).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 SDA/FCCM | I²C data line / FCCM enable | Bi-directional SDA in I²C mode; pull-high to force CCM when used as FCCM control-enables seamless transition between efficiency-optimized DCM and noise-sensitive CCM operation. |
| A2, A3 IN | Main power input | Dual-bump VIN connection lowers IR drop and improves current sharing-supports up to 5.5 V input with integrated UVLO hysteresis (100 mV). |
| B1 SCL | I²C clock input | Dedicated clock input for synchronized register access; must be pulled to GND in logic-controlled variants but actively driven here for full configurability. |
| B2, B3 SW | Switching node | High-current path to external inductor; requires tight layout with low-inductance routing to minimize EMI and voltage spikes during 33 mΩ/23 mΩ FET transitions. |
| C1 VSEL | Voltage select input | Logic-level input selecting between two I²C-programmed output voltages (VSET1/VSET2); enables dual-rail sequencing without additional GPIOs. |
| C2, C3 GND | Power ground | Dual GND bumps provide low-impedance return path for both power and signal currents-critical for stable COT regulation and PG accuracy. |
| D1 PG | Power good open-drain output | Asserts when VOUT ≥ 93% of target and ramp complete; polarity programmable via Reg 03h[0]-synchronizes SoC boot sequence and enables system-level fault detection. |
| D2 EN | Enable input | Active-high logic enable; device remains I²C-accessible in shutdown (EN = low) for status reads-supports controlled power-down without bus reset. |
| D3 OUT | Output voltage sense | Direct connection to output capacitor positive terminal; enables accurate remote sensing and compensates for PCB trace IR drop in high-current paths. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Constant On-Time (COT) Control | Delivers <10 µs load transient recovery (Fig. 16–17) without external compensation-ideal for burst-mode CPU/GPU voltage scaling in mobile APs. |
| Audio Reduction Mode (ARM) | Eliminates audible ceramic capacitor whine by forcing minimum 25 kHz/40 kHz switching via programmable dead-time timeout-critical for smartphone camera and display modules. |
| Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS) | Programmable 2–16 s/10 mV step enables controlled SoC core voltage ramping during DVFS transitions-reduces inrush current and prevents brown-out during frequency changes. |
| Forced Continuous Conduction (FCCM) | Enables fixed-frequency operation via I²C or SDA/FCCM pin-suppresses frequency modulation noise in RF-sensitive bands (e.g., near LTE/WiFi front-end modules). |
| Integrated Power Good (PG) | Configurable active-high/active-low open-drain output with 128 µs deglitch-provides deterministic SoC reset timing and eliminates need for external supervisor ICs. |

FAQ
What is the I²C address of the FAN53730UC02X?
The FAN53730UC02X uses a 7-bit I²C address of 0x22 (hex), as specified in the Ordering Information table on page 2 of the datasheet. This differs from the base FAN53730UCX variant (0x20) to allow coexistence of multiple FAN53730 devices on the same bus. The address is hardwired and not software-configurable; all register reads/writes for the FAN53730UC02X must target 0x22.
Does the FAN53730UC02X support Dynamic Voltage Scaling (DVS)?
Yes, the FAN53730UC02X fully supports DVS via I²C registers. Using RR_DVS bits (Reg 02h[4:2]), the output voltage slew rate is programmable from immediate step-change to 16 seconds per 10 mV increment. DVS is enabled by setting DVS_EN (Reg 06h[4]) = 1. The FAN53730UC02X executes precise voltage transitions between its I²C-programmed VSET1 (1.00 V) and VSET2 (1.05 V) targets-critical for SoC DVFS compliance.
How does the Audio Reduction Mode (ARM) function in the FAN53730UC02X?
The FAN53730UC02X implements ARM by monitoring DCM idle time and forcing a switching cycle if the dead time exceeds a programmable threshold (25 µs or 40 µs, set via ARM_TO in Reg 02h[6]). When ARM_EN (Reg 06h[5]) = 1, this ensures minimum switching frequencies of 40 kHz or 25 kHz-eliminating audible noise from ceramic capacitors. ARM is exclusive to I²C-controlled variants like the FAN53730UC02X and cannot be enabled on logic-controlled versions.
What is the maximum output current capability of the FAN53730UC02X?
The FAN53730UC02X delivers up to 3 A DC output current, validated per the Typical Derating Curve (Fig. 33) across 2.5 V–5.5 V input and 0.3 V–1.0 V output at +85°C ambient. This limit arises from thermal constraints and valley-current limiting (IVALLEY = 4.6 A typ). At 3 A, efficiency reaches ~83% (VIN = 3.8 V, VOUT = 1.0 V); sustained 3 A operation requires adequate PCB copper area and thermal vias per the 2s2p layout guidelines in the datasheet.
Can the power-good (PG) output polarity be changed on the FAN53730UC02X?
Yes, the PG polarity is fully configurable via the PG_POL bit (Reg 03h[0]) in the FAN53730UC02X. By default, PG is active-high open-drain (pulls low when inactive). Setting PG_POL = 0 configures PG to active-low-pulling low when VOUT is in regulation. This flexibility allows direct interfacing with SoC reset inputs or FPGA configuration logic without external inverters, and is unique to I²C-controlled variants like the FAN53730UC02X.
